On vehicles as far as I know there is no national tax. Most states have a normal sales tax of 5-6%, here in Indiana it was just moved up to 6% from 5% it had been for years. That sales tax applies to everything except for groceries, those are non taxable.

If I lived in an EU country I would rather shoot myself than to pay 60% on my income and then have to pay 60k on a 20k car, FUCK THAT SHIT. How in the hell does your governments expect people to be able to buy anything. Shit I thought the economy here in the states was bad right now. I guess the US really is the best place in the world to live. Geez that is just outrageous on those car taxes.
Why do you think Vikings found America?
